Lots of growth in the tent today! Dendrochilum tenellum is nearly fully bloomed out, and is very cute! Bulbo echinolabium is pushing a new growth, so I'm trying to water it as much as possible. Mormodia Jumbo World continues to hold its seed pod, and has a nice new growth pushing, but I hope we'll see more. Cattleya dowiana rosita is pushing a growth and I'm looking for new roots to attach to its cork mount. Several Cattleya rex seedlings are outgrowing their community pots, so I have to be careful with the water so the roots don't suffocate. Bulbo medusae has a couple new growths pushing, as usual trying to climb out of its pot. Cattleya rex 'Inti's new growth doesn't seem quite as big as the last two, but it might be too soon to tell. 'Wayra' is the furthest along of the rexes, and I expect to see its flowers in April. Trianae A. C. Burrage is putting out two growths. Bulbo lepidum is starting to root from its three new growths, and Lovely Elizabeth has put out a nice large bulb with a big leaf, now rooting through the basket walls. Cattleya maxima has gorgeous new growths and will likely be divided in the autumn after blooming. Rex 'Mayu' has two nice new growths but it could rot at any time, so I have to watch it carefully. A few of the other Catasetinae are showing signs of growth, but are still months away from needing water. Various other Cattleya seedlings are looking great.
